Good luck with real life, appreciate your work up until now. Will you come back if irl clears up?


"Has depth" doesn't mean "everyone is a complete imbecile who doesn't even understand their own interests", no matter how much you might think the "real world" is like that. Usually it's more of creating a victim complex that the MC can take revenge for or gloriously defeat in order to make everyone impressed and treat the readers to a bunch of .__. and >:O faces from the peanut gallery.


Don't project your modern life backwards into history or into fantasy. I get the temptation since isekai is quite literally about moving modern ideas and sensibilities into a place they don't belong, but that doesn't make it any better. An isekai that has depth will first and foremost understand that modern ideas and concepts come from modern truths, and can't be moved wholesale into a world where pissing off the hero has him liable to toss the entire castle into the Sun.
Aren't you being a bit harsh? From their point of view, it makes sense to be suspicious and cautious, even if they're going a bit overboard. Look at the facts:

1 - Fighting the DK army cost them over a million lives. They don't want to attempt it again unless they have a strong hero they can understand and trust.

2 - Hero ran away immediately after being summoned, without the hero sword or any real weapons, returns and claims to have killed two elite four members

3 - A demon invaded the capital very soon after Hero was summoned and ran

4 - One of the elite four is well known to be able to transform into any or even multiple people. Even considering him dying, it's not too farfetched to assume another demon has the same ability and turned in to the hero when he ran.

5 - If he is a spy, like the old man said, it wouldn't be hard to "fake" the proof. It's not like Hero has the bodies.

6 - Nobody saw him actually do it (Daanya and Kiira aren't enough proof themselves (could be tricked/impersonated like Adventure party)

The old man's theory that he ran away and was replaced by a demon spy holds a lot of weight, and is a lot more likely than him almost soloing the strongest monsters in the land completely unarmed. I'd be suspicious as well. And at least they're giving him a lie test, instead of locking him or attacking him outright.

We're just desensitized by years of watching OP isekai protagonists effortlessly steam roll everything, so we find it hard to emphasize with anyone doubting it happening here.

Thanks for all of your work so far, FML.

Oniiyu truly is abundant. This distrust is definitely the work of the third Elite 4.

MC: Hello i'm saving all of you
"The seven": HOW DARE YOU

For one in my like i want a manga where the leaders of the world have a IQ hire than room temperature

Thanks for the chapter!
A core pillar of isekai stories is that the main character is unfairly underappreciated. It's meant as escapism for people who are frustrated at work or school or in love, so they get to imagine themselves turning the tables on people they envy.

This series is one of the rare few that doesn't do this, it feels more like a genuine and fun idea that they're playing with. It also has a very high quality scanlation, which is why I'm sad to hear it's being dropped.

Thank you for the chapters so far, it has been a really fun ride. Sad to hear your team has to drop this.

I hope Sachiku get back to his speedrunner mode soon. He seems to be in shock after the arrest and also experiencing the game lore while at it haha. If he goes back to speedrunning, he'll definitely think of a way to glitch out of the place xD

Bro, the Ada slander... I can't :kek:
Indeed, whoever made that joke is incredibly funny and probably very attractive also.

Kinda understandable. Speedrunners don't get a lot of lore exposure because they're trying to skip all the dialogue and cutscenes that a normal run encounters. They may even be ignorant of facts that are fairly common knowledge in the fandom.
